Good Morning All,
At the AGM I mentioned that QCSA had secured the privilege of some of our 2011 UNDER 6 / UNDER 7 / UNDER 8 children being able to escort the BRISBANE ROAR and MELBOURNE VICTORY teams onto the playing surface of SUNCORP STADIUM on DECEMBER 31,2011.
This is now a confirmed reality and I would like to invite ALL teams with boys and girls in these three age groups that were registered in 2011 to participate in this unique opportunity. To make it fair on everyone, I would like clubs to forward me the NAMES of interested 2011 REGISTERED PLAYERS in the above age groups so I can form a ballot (if need be). We need 22 young players (given that we had over 1000 registered in 2011 this could get big)…and CONFIRMATION that their parents are willing and able to take their children to Suncorp Stadium on December 31, 2011 for a 7.45pm kick off.
TO REGISTER CHILDREN FOR THE BALLOT PLEASE EMAIL ME AT treasurer@qcsa.org.au WITH THE NAME AND 2011 TEAM/CLUB (Yes they will be checked) FOR THE CHILD. REGISTRATION OF A CHILD IS (a) NO GUARANTEE THAT HE/SHE WILL BE SELECTED and (b) CONFIRMATION THAT THEIR PARENTS ARE COMMITTING TO ATTENDING THE GAME ON DECEMBER 31, 2011.
(YES THIS IS NEW YEARS EVE – PLEASE ONLY ACCEPT NOMINATIONS FROM PARENTS COMMITTED TO BRINGING THEIR CHILD TO THE GAME)
The final 22 players will be given a THREE tickets to the match (one for them…and one each for their parents to attend)
And before everyone asks…The FINAL 22 players selected will all “draw straws” to see who walks on the field with Harry Kewell J
I know that this is NOT the right time of the year to be doing this, but it is very important to the QCSA that we have 22 of our junior players in attendance for this game (boys and girls), as we have also been promised the same deal at another ROAR home game later in the year (sometime in MARCH when Soccer is more so on the minds of most QCSA parents)
Please get this out to AS MANY PARENTS AS POSSIBLE so all children have an opportunity to participate in this special occasion
Best Wishes to all and Kind Regards,
Tony Scarcella
QCSA Treasurer
